I actually enjoyed this book so much more than the first one. I think I got so much air inside of me from laughing too much. I just loved how Uncle Rick can casually throw the best humor every freaking time! Their adventures are so exciting and gripping at the same time. I loved how likable the whole team are. They all got different personalities and attitudes yet they complement each other very well. They are a very perfect team and I can't help thinking about the Prophecy of Seven from Heroes of Olympus, though I can't totally compare the two team with each other.

And oh my god, I just loved the Magnus-Alex interaction so so much! I think I am the one blushing every time Magnus stares at Alex. Even though Alex seemed quite snarky for most of the time, Magnus still let himself think there's more to her than her attitude. He understood her even without knowing too much about her and that is what I loved the most. And also their banters and sarcastic comments with each other.

I also laughed so hard because of the appearances of the following scene-stealer of this book:
> Jack the Sword of Summer, his singing ability, his funny remarks and even his attraction with his fellow magical weapon
> Otis, the depressed goat
> Heimdall, the god of selfie
> Thor, his scary pigtails and his favorite hammer Mee-Mee

I am just so excited to continue reading the final book of this trilogy. I'm anticipating more dangerous adventures and more hilarious interactions. I am also excited to see more of the team because I so loved them so much!
